7 Inspiring Ideas for Instagram Stories What makes a good story? It’s a question journalists and writers have asked for centuries, and in today’s content-fuelled world, it’s more relevant than ever…

 

People have always been interested in other people – human interest stories make some of the most widely-ready copy around – and now, thanks to Instagram Stories, we all have the chance to create our own personal narratives.

 

Instagram Stories are not posts in isolation – it’s more about creating an ongoing narrative that allows people to delve into your world on a daily basis. By opening up your world you are revealing your personality and allowing people to get to know you. This helps you to build a connection with your audience so that they come to trust and like you. And once you’ve gained people’s trust, you can really start to drive your business forward.
